Thanks to the ossification of the internet, every new protocol or protocol extension needs to be over HTTPS.

DoT works fine, it's supported on all kinds of operating systems even if they don't advertise it, but DoH arrived in browsers. Some shitty ISPs and terrible middleboxes also block DoT (though IMO that should be a reason to switch ISPs, not a reason to stop using DoT).

On the hosting side, there are more options for HTTP proxies/firewalls/multiplexers/terminators than there are for DNS, so it's easier to build infra around DoH. If you're just a small server, you won't need more than an nginx stream proxy, but if you're doing botnet detection and redundant failovers, you may need something more complex.
